That watch released the same year I was born, may have been a hasty purchase but I say it was a good one.

Can attest said SARX055 would have had a much higher MSRP if it were sold in the US. I spent just shy of the same amount for my King Samurai and the level of finishing/quality of movement is a lot lower on the Samurai. Still an excellent watch that Samurai mind you, but the value for money of the SARX055 is incredible. Thanks again @HotWatchChick69!
